The last two weeks have not really been filled with "highlight moments in Jen's life." In fact, it's been rather...dim. Victor and I decided not to date each other, not because we didn't like each other, but because I felt it wasn't right, and I'm leaving forever. Thus began my first experience with a break up. Ugh. Those of you that know me can attest to the fact that I do not cry or eat ice cream very often. Last week I think I did more of both of them than I do in a given year.
But, I am ok! I hope that I have grown as a person (spiritually, socially, etc.) I have so many GREAT memories. And although one thing has been taken away, I am reminded of how many other blessings I still have. As the Persian proverb says, "When it is dark enough, you can see the stars."

you're brave to write about that. it's true, the first love is the hardest to get over, but a better one may be waiting.
I was wondering why you haven't been posting. :( I'm so sorry :( Break ups are soooo hard and sad and just plain horrible. I've had my fair share, but I'm sure it's for the best since you are moving back here. It's kind of a lose lose situation because breaking up is hard but doing a long distance relationship would be hard too! Hopefully your heard mends quicky. You know what they say - You get over someone when you find someone else :) Maybe an American is waiting for you here!
Did I mention I'm excited to see you? What's your plans when you move back?
Beautiful proverb. Though breaking up is still hitting you hard, it sounds like it was for the best of reasons which will make it so much easier to look back on with fondness. Along with tears & ice cream, try loud, fun music and dancing like crazy. :)
You amaze me Jen. I am so impressed at your strength.
PS I am a blog stalker. But, it's not too bad because I do actually know you :)
I'm so sorry Jen, I'm proud of you though for doing the right thing, even though it totally sucks! All I know is that you're going to have a better guy come in your life just around the corner. You're awesome!
Oh Jen! I'm so sorry that things have been so hard. I wish I could be there with you to eat ice cream, and you know me...I can pretty much cry on cue, so I'd do that with you too! I love you bad and i cant wait to see you this month! *big hug* XOXOX
jen! people do read your blog, so keep at it. :)
